Quadri*SilBraced Line PostInsulatorsfor 69 kV Applications & Above

These insulating structures offer vastly improved vertical load capabilities over conventional line posts, while retaining the advantages of a fixed conductor position.

Catalog Number Key

Please follow the instructions in the Insulator Selection Guide and return the filled-out form to your Hubbell Power Systems representative. Filling out the form with as much information as possible will ensure that our engineers receive all the critical dimensions and information needed to design your braced line post assembly. For information on braced line post assemblies not included in this catalog, please contact your HPS representative.

The first three digits define the insulator type. In this example, we picked a Braced Line Post; therefore, we entered “BLP” in the boxes designated for “a.”

Polymer length of the line post member (in inches). The nominal polymer length (in inches) of the line post insulator is specified to help define voltage rating of the braced line post assembly. Refer to the Horizontal Line Post Insulators table in the Quadri*Sil section for appropriate polymer lengths.

Fill in your selection in the boxes designated for section “b.”For example, if you want a Braced Line Post with a 75-inch polymer length, enter “075.”

The upsweep angle of the assembly is defined to help identify the assembly. Typically, braced line post assemblies will have 12 degrees of upsweep angle, and horizontal-V and pivoting-V assemblies will have 0 degrees.

Fill in your selection in the box designated for section “d” for the upsweep

A single letter is used to identify the type of base. Please refer to the base drawings for hole patterns and dimensions located in the Quadri*Sil section.

F – FlatG – GainP – Pivoting

Fill in your selection in the box designated for section “c.” For example, if you want a flat base, enter “F.”

000 – Sequential number to address each variation or model

Fill in your selection in the box designated for section “e.” In this example, the braced line post is the first in a series, as designated by “001.”

Notes:1. Corona rings are required and included for 220 kV and above.

2. Base end fitting for posts is code “02’’ for a gain base or “03’’ for a flat base. Replace the “XX” with the appropriate code.

3. Maximum loads are for single loads in the specified direction.

4. Contact your Hubbell Power Systems representative to request combined load charts.

5. Additional voltages and assemblies available. Contact you HPS representative to inquire.
